One Response for "BlackBerry Thunder vs BlackBerry Storm"

   This is true, or something as big-a-deal as a sliding keyboard. A representative from Rogers told me that Rogers has the license for the Thunder on March. 1st, 2009. However, the phone is still going through testing, and might not be out till later. Wait for specs around the beginning of next month!

   I’m assuming wi-fi, thinner profile (or just slightly thicker with a keyboard), and faster processor (650mhz+ instead of 528mhz or whatever it is now).

   I also speculate Blackberry will be releasing a destop software music/store media player that will rival Apples iTunes and work with your library and its own playlists through seamless uploading. This program would also incorporate all of the current Blackberry’s desktop software. Each carrier would have available the appropriate store content upon detection of individual wireless provider after the phone’s connection.

   I also would like to see the storm with the bold’s leather backing, especially with the possible keyboard (to add shock absorption on the more delicate sliding apparatus).

   Oh-and why not a 2mp camera on the front. It’s easy, small, and makes for good times. Video calls could also get interesting with that screen size

   Stay ahead of Apple, RIM!

   My final note: If there is no keyboard on the Thunder,
   keep your eyes peeled for a haptic screen 8900!

   cheers,
